Haryana Election Results 2024: Although the BJP secured a significant win in the 2024 Haryana Assembly elections, it faced a setback as 8 out of 10 ministers from CM Nayab Singh Saini’s cabinet lost, along with the Speaker of the Assembly. Only two ministers managed to win. The 8 ministers who lost are:
- Gyan Chand Gupta (Speaker) – Panchkula
- Subhash Sudha – Thanesar
- Sanjay Singh – Nuh
- Aseem Goyal – Ambala City
- Kamal Gupta – Hisar
- Kanwar Pal – Jagadhri
- JP Dalal – Loharu
- Abhay Singh Yadav – Nangal Chaudhary
- Ranjit Singh Chautala – Rania (Independent)
Despite claims of an anti-incumbency wave, the BJP is set to form the government for the third time in Haryana. However, the loss of these 8 ministers is seen as a major blow to the party. Ranjit Singh Chautala, an independent candidate from Rania, was also among the losers. He ran as an independent after BJP denied him a ticket. INLD’s Arjun Chautala won the seat. Ranjit Singh had previously lost in the Lok Sabha elections from Hisar as a BJP candidate.

Assembly Speaker Gyan Chand Gupta lost the Panchkula seat to Congress’s Chander Mohan. BJP’s Subhash Sudha was defeated by Congress’s Ashok Arora in Thanesar by more than 3,000 votes.
